Can we meet you before deciding to book?

Absolutely. It would be great to meet up and I think that it is very important that you like and get on well with your wedding photographer. I am more than happy to meet up for a chat with no obligation and pressure of booking, so you can see if I might be the photographer for you. If you don’t live locally to me, and a meeting is difficult, we can always chat on the phone or via video conferencing such as Zoom. You’ll find my number on the contact page, or we can chat via the internet if you prefer.

How far ahead can we book you?

As far as you like. It pays to reserve your date of your event as soon as you know it, to ensure availability.

Our wedding might be outside of your immediate area, can we still book you?

Yes, I am based in Axminster, Devon, but I am always happy to photograph weddings in Devon, Somerset and Dorset.

How would you describe your style?

I am a natural light photographer and I always want my images to capture the laughter and emotion of the day. I focus, not just on the couple, but also on your guests who play such a big part in your wedding day to capture the moments that would otherwise be missed, or forgotten.

What happens if I am nervous about being photographed?

Most couples are nervous about being photographed, but try not to worry too much about this. I can guide you through the photos by offering very gentle direction, a great sense of humour and I will never put you into awkward, uncomfortable poses.

We like your informal style but will you take formal group shots for us?

Absolutely. I will be happy to take any formal shots you need for your day. I will always request a list of these shots prior to your wedding day and will be happy to provide a suggested list for you to use as a starting point, if required.

Can our guests take pictures too?

Yes, of course. Guests taking their own pictures is a very important part of the day. I encourage wedding guests to take as many photos as possible!

Do you require a deposit?

Your booking will need to be secured with a 10% deposit. Unfortunately, I am unable to reserve a date until a deposit has been received.

How much does a wedding photographer cost?

Wedding photography prices vary but I am proud to offer affordable wedding photography services in Devon, Dorset and Somerset. You can see my wedding photography packages above but if these packages don’t suit your special day, please get in touch to discuss a bespoke package.

When and how do we pay you?

Full payment can be made at any time after you make your booking. All payments can be made securely online.

Do you have any hidden charges for anything?

There are no hidden charges, ever.

How do we get our wedding pictures?

Images are supplied free of copyright on a memory stick, allowing you to use the images however you want.

How long before we get our images?

Your images will normally be ready within 10-14 days after your wedding day.

How long do you stay on the day?

It depends on the length of your booking but I will always agree a start time with you prior to the wedding day and will never leave until I have checked in with you to ensure there is nothing else you need.

Do you ever photograph more than one wedding a day?

No, my primary and sole focus is always you and your wedding day.

Do you have insurance?

I have public liability, personal indemnity and insurance for all my equipment.

Do we have to choose from one of your set wedding photography packages or can we create something just for us?

No, you don’t need to select a specific package, as I can cover as much or as little of your day as you like! Let me know exactly what you are after and we can work together to create something that is especially designed for, and works for, you.

Wedding Photographer in Devon & the South West

I am a photojournalist who will capture images to tell the story of your day. I believe that each occasion is unique.

So, how can any photographer simply price the event as a package? I use a Price Guide to help you get an idea of what the costs could be.

Better still email me to check my availability. Provide a brief outline of your day, including the venue location/s, anticipated start and finish times, with the approximate number of guests.

I can provide a price to you for your unique day. Remember, once booked, the agreed cost is guaranteed.
